Advise needed on Evicted Tenant Stuffs

Hello All,

Hope all s well with market cooling down. Started as newbie last year and have 20+ properties and I thought I had seen everything with break in, squatter, eviction, etc.. but of course not! 


I have a tenant in FL who did not pay rent for 3+ months and went through eviction and I have changed the locks and access to the property. However, the tenant (both husband and wife) ghosted and their mobile no no longer works and their email bounces too. They were doing cleaning business and I have no access to their employer to find them. Issue is that they have all their stuffs inside the home(Tvs, furniture, etc). My attorney told me to throw them out and move on but I cannot keep it in the yard as I won't be able to rent with all the trash in the front and the city wont allow it too. Or should I just keep it outside for a day and then clear out trash calling someone? Or should I keep the stuffs in storage for a month and then discard if they don't reach me?

I am just trying to be generous not to dump their stuff too but also want to be vary of the issues if I keep the stuffs for too long. Any advise is much appreciated.
